Besides, I seriously doubt Chevy, oops... Chevrolet will follow up with an inferior product. What do you guys think?
Z28 > GT500
Because I said so.


The reality is we don't know NEAR enough about the Z to guess how it'll perform. All we've got is a piece of paper taped to the dashboard of a cobbled together test-mule that says 6.2L Supercharged.

That said -- you're last statement is dead-on, I think. They're not going to come "late" to the game with an inferior product. So....expect something good.
